It's a good sign to see a man as well known and respected as Chuck Finley stand up and take the position that his wife's violence is a real danger to both his children and himself.
Perhaps other men will follow his example and stop giving the women in their lives a green light to slap them around whenever they feel like it. I don't know the specifics of this case or their history and maybe he is just as much the cause as is she, but my hunch tells me otherwise.

EVERYONE HATES A WIFE BATTERER
THIS YEAR 5 OUT OF 4 WOMEN WILL BE ABUSED BY THEIR HUSBAND
 
  How does this sign make you feel? It makes you hate men, and all men, it even makes men hate men. It's complet omission of the other side of the story, that is rarely asked, makes the blood boil, But what if it were to look this way , how does that make you feel?
 
    EVERYONE HATES A WIFE BATTERER
THIS YEAR 2 OUT OF 5 WOMEN WILL BE ABUSED BY THEIR HUSBAND

  EVERYONE HATES A HUSBAND BATTERER
THIS YEAR ALSO 2 OUT OF 5 MEN WILL BE ABUSED BY THEIR WIFE WITH JUST
  AS THREATENING INJURIES AND EMOTIONAL
                      DISTRESS
 
Most people may not believe the second part , until they see it enough. But they were willing to believe that 5 out of 4 women were victims without questioning it. My description is a close satire in relation to skewd , bolsterd and omitted statistics. It should be automatic , to avoid spreading hate materials, that the stats be given showing the other party, on billboards and pamphlets etc...That way we can at least hate everyone equally. Pleas feel free to pass this along or to ratify the concept into your own creation to pass along. I wonder how people will begin to feel after knowing the whole story.

This one word, ‘abuse’ has built and now sustains empires that have wasted more money and lives than every single war ever, combined.

Drop a mother with small child in a forest, and you have a crisis. Do the same thing and add a father and soon you have a small farm, and a sovereign family living off of the environment.

Tawny's Escape Hatch? (Score:1)

"""The Orange County Register reported Wednesday that Kitaen acknowledged that she has become addicted to prescription medications for depression and migraine headaches over the past two years. She said that she voluntarily checked into a 30-day rehabilitation treatment program last week."""

This might be the escape hatch Tawny's divorce lawyers need to get the house, kids, alimony and child support from the abused and soon to be homeless Chuck Findley.

It is what the child molester and alcoholic Paula Poundstone did to get a mild slap on the wrist and her kids back.

Just shift the blame for your criminal behavior on those nasty (Male?) doctors who over prescribed drugs for your very real emotional condition. Then showing a misandrous prone judge how much you realize that you have a substance abuse problem, not necessarily of your own making of course, and to show your innate mature adult responsibility as a female, you *voluntarily* commit yourself to a 30 day drug/alcohol rehab program. And abra cadabra you are a whole but wiser responsible woman/mother goddess once again.

It is the "abuse excuse" "battered woman syndrome" just in different form.
And it unfortunately seems to work.
